摘要

本文回顾了全球胜任能力的著名定义，探讨了全球胜任能力潜在益处的现有证据（尽管有限），并就如何在国家安全理论和相关实践中理解全球事务教育的重要性提出了建议。文章指出了全球胜任力为安全带来益处的三个潜在途径。首先，全球能力--特别是通过分阶段的小学、中学和大学教育模式--可以直接或间接地促进更强大、更有竞争力的劳动力队伍，进而增强一个国家的创新能力、经济和军事实力以及抵御冲击的能力。第二，全球胜任能力可以作为一种公共外交形式，进而支持一个国家的软实力和全球影响力。第三，全球能力可以加强国内机构，消除有关全球问题的错误/不实信息，减少面对恶意行为者的脆弱性，这些恶意行为者的目的是利用有关世界的不准确和基于恐惧的信息来影响和破坏外国选民的稳定。

Global Competency as National Security: Exploring the Global Affairs Education-Security Nexus

This article reviews prominent definitions of global competency, explores the available (though limited) current evidence for its potential benefits, and offers recommendations for framing an understanding of the salience of global affairs education within theories of national security and related practice. The article identifies three potential pathways through which global competency benefits security. First, global competency—especially through phased primary, secondary and tertiary educational models—may contribute to a stronger and more competitive workforce in direct and indirect ways, in turn enhancing a country’s innovative capacities and economic and military power and resilience to shocks. Second, global competency can serve as a form of public diplomacy, in turn supporting a country’s soft power and global influence. Third, global competency can strengthen domestic institutions, combatting dis/misinformation about global issues and reducing vulnerability to malign actors who aim to leverage inaccurate and fear-based messages about the world to influence and destabilize foreign electorates.

期刊介绍： Orbis, the Foreign Policy Research Institute quarterly journal of world affairs, was founded in 1957 as a forum for policymakers, scholars, and the informed public who sought an engaging, thought-provoking debate beyond the predictable, conventional journals of that time. Nearly half a century later, Orbis continues to offer informative, insightful, and lively discourse on the full range of topics relating to American foreign policy and national security, as well as in-depth analysis on important international developments. Orbis readers always know the stories behind the headlines.
